Cronie does not respect MAILTO

[wes33]

Suddenly, cronie is sending email to username@mail.domain
instead of the email specified in /etc/crontab with MAILTO:
(where “username” is my local user name and “mail.domain”
is the domain given in the MAILTO: line)

Has anyone seen this and know a fix?

In case anyone runs into this: I had to change one line in
/etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf from

FromLineOverride=YES

to

FromLineOverride=NO

Not sure why that worked but cronie is emailing me again

In case anyone runs into this, the solution seems to be:

In the file /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf change

FromLineOverride=YES

to:

FromLineOverride=NO

Also add to the /etc/ssmtp/revaliases file the user mapping for the users you want the CRON messages to go to, like this:

root:user@somewhere.com
